Setting Up the project locally

To install the project you need to have node and npm installed

  1. Fork the project, clone your fork:

    # Clone your fork
    git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/graphql-architect.git
    
    # Navigate to the newly cloned directory
    cd graphql-architect
  2. from the root of the project: npm install all dependencies

    • make sure you have latest npm version
  3. from the root of the project: npm start

Tip: Keep your master branch pointing at the original repository and make pull requests from branches on your fork. To do this, run:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/grand-stack/graphql-architect
git fetch upstream
git branch --set-upstream-to=upstream/master master

This will add the original repository as a "remote" called "upstream," then fetch the git information from that remote, then set your local master branch to use the upstream master branch whenever you run git pull. Then you can make all of your pull request branches based on this master branch. Whenever you want to update your version of master, do a regular git pull.

Local Development

Grandstack Architect can be built and developed one of two ways: Through the web app process and into a package that can be added directly to neo4j desktop. While the web app portion works in an aesthetic/theoretical sense most of the complexity and usability is currently focused on the built application.

Building for Desktop

To build the app and test it in development in desktop you will need to

  1. Install Neo4j Desktop
  2. Pack the app with npm run pack:dev or npm run pack
  3. Drag and drop the packed tarball into Neo4j Desktop

Running the Web App

$ npm run start

Submitting a Pull Request

Please go through existing issues and pull requests to check if somebody else is already working on it, we use someone working on it label to mark such issues.

husky will run type checking, prettier and a linter before you are allowed to commit but you may run these commands seperately

npm test
npm run lint
npm run format
